Once again your research made me look good with my clients. And thank you for the quick turnaround!

Marjan’s thoroughness, resourcefulness, and investigative mindset made her a most valued team member on forensic accounting engagements. In all of my dealings with her, she consistently demonstrated professionalism and commitment and she was always a pleasure to work with.

Marjan is accomplished in all the technical aspect of information management and research, but far more importantly, she puts these skills to work to deliver what her client needs. She is focused on solutions and high-quality output, and is very well-rounded, curious, and innovative. She is very easy to work with.
